Most people will have had enough of this comedy's vacuous heroine before the opening credits are over, having heard of her ambitions to walk into a top job at a Los Angeles publishing house immediately on graduation. She doesn't get the job, but remains as obnoxious as ever as she's forced to re-nest with her eccentric parents and dotty grandmother. It's a clumsily scripted, misfiring affair with a desperate running joke about Dad (a puzzled, overacting Michael Keaton) stepping into the crap left on his doorstep by a neighbour's cat.
